Review on Gyuto Chef’s Knife: 8 inch Japanese Knife with Alloy Steel Blade - Perfect for Sushi & Kitchen Use! (Gift Box Included) by Dana Manning

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wielding swords like a shinobi

I've never had to buy expensive knives that aren't made for general purpose or outdoor adventures. However, after watching a few outdoor dishes on YouTube and trying daily intakes of sashimi and sushi, I decided to invest in a tool that cuts like butter. I wasn't sure what to expect but what, hey, let's try. Delivery and packaging satisfied. The knife is beautiful out of the box. I could only imagine a blacksmith or gunsmith forging this beautiful thing. Sweat and maybe tears pour down and pour into the essence of the Usuki brand. The overall weight is great. The slashing motion is nice and smooth as I swing my swords like a shinobi. Don't try this at home. Overall I like this knife.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • There are downsides
